Rogue waves in the ocean were considered a myth for a very long time, fanciful and fabricated tales of fishermen too long in the sun and on the sea. What basic physics mechanism provides an explanation of their existence

D. Constructive Interference of waves

Explanation:

Rogue waves occur when wave forms arrive suddenly in oceans, thus causing ships to sink within a very short time. The explanation scientists have for this is constructive interference magnified by second-order bound non-linearities. Waves are meant to arrive in a particular direction. During constructive interference, these waves arrive from different directions and in an organized way thus increasing the height of the wave.

This increased height is as a result of the waves not being in a linear form and having sharp peaks. There is also a significant difference between the crests and troughs. Scientists arrived at this explanation for the rogue waves though three experiments conducted in 1997, 2007, and 2015.
